Some number of issues have been ferreted out, a couple serious, and

No thanks Guy. I'll just wait for the brave ones to work out all the

Bill,
What!
You mean you don't want them to pass it through three or four levels of
management, design, Gant chart creation, quality control and documentation
before releasing it to the developers!
What are you? A bloated corporation hater?
Remember! We owe it to the stockholders to appear
Compared to the many others that have weighed in already, I am a few days
late taking a look at the new firmware. It may have been worth the wait.
In a nutshell, the new 4.50/2.74 works extremely well. I've been waiting
for my K3 to really be able to perform in deep pileups, like I had
Hi everybody
In evaluating the new firmware I use 2xK3, #791 #5752

To my ears, this AGC change is a MAJOR improvement! It didn't
take any extensive testing to reach that conclusion. The
difference is immediately obvious.
As mentioned previously, with low values of slope and high values
of threshold, loud signals blank out with the current firmware

That's very good news. Possibly a beta release this week or maybe next,
I hope.

Now if we could convince ANY vehicle manufacturer to have the same attitude,
designers that are also mechanics (without the need for an MSEE)... Maybe
we'd have a chance to work under the hood again like we can with Elecraft.

Help:
I think Wayne's post indicated it would be released as a beta in the
next week or so once the field test reports were in and they were
satisfied with it. It sure sounds like a really good job on the AGC, I
guess patience is in order ... I know, hard for this list and these
products. :-)

I just talked to Lyle. Looks like by tomorrow we'll have a version of
DSP code that allows NR and autonotch to be used at all threshold
settings, and fixes the high-signal issue some had reported.
I'll send it out to everyone who got the last test version.

We in the IT business call it Alpha and you don't send it to anybody
who can't figure out how to fix a broken system. In this case it's
pretty easy, reset the radio and reload a backed up FW and config.
I would call what Wayne is doing this time Beta and when it is released

As a retired software developer, what amazes me is the way Wayne
and company are performing their beta test. No NDA. It looks
like almost anyone can sign up. Problems and future intentions
are discussed in a public forum. I am blown away that a company
would act this way. It is very

Bill,
True, true -- but the situation with the KX3 is different than what has
transpired with previous products.
Previously, the conversations of the Field Testers have been on a
private forum. While that is still true with the KX3, there is a lot
more information that is in the open. My

Sorry, I was responding to the wrong post.
While the content is valid for what it is, it is in response to a post

Not to worry. Your comments are a fine description of why in
exchange for openness on the part of the vendor, the customers
(we) need to exhibit patients when the inevitable things go
wrong and things take longer than everyone hoped.
